Why does this guy have so much rage against Nintendo?

That's just the way he writes. Jim Sterling needs to STFU, IMO.

How many times have people written "this" under your posts?

anyway, I agree with the "passive aggressiveness" comment. But then again, maybe they deserve it.

this guy needs to realise that Nintendo have actually released the same amount of core titles that they did for GameCube in a quicker fashion. Also he says Metroid was 'throwing a bone' where Nintendo have a dedicated team to Metroid titles (SPD PG1 I think it is) and that Other M has been on the boiler since 2007.

Here's a better way to look at it.. Nintendo have five MAJOR development teams which all fall under the EAD umbrella, here is what they are:

EAD1 - Mario Kart, Starfox, Pikmin team (they are currently working on Wii Fit Plus and Pikmin 3)

EAD2 - Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Music, Animal Crossing team (currently working on Wii Vitality)

EAD3 - The Zelda Team

EAD4 - New Super Mario Bros, Band Brothers, all portable Mario titles (currently working on NSMBWii)

EAD Tokyo - The 3D Mario team

So out of the five major teams at Nintendo, one is dedicated to Zelda, one is dedicated to 3D Mario titles and one is mostly dedicated to the Wii Series. Another is mostly involved with 2D Mario platformers and the other team seems to be dedicated to bridge titles such as Mario Kart Wii.

On top of that, they're working on bringing cult classics like Sin and Punishment 2 to fans and continue to release Fire Emblem titles, of which the sales aren't that great.

I didn't read the entire article so if he mentioned this point then I'm sorry but if he really had a beef with NoA then he wouldn't have mentioned any of this bullshit and just complained about the lack of localisation of FFIV and Trace Memory and Disaster, These are genuine negatives towards NoA.


Pretty ridiculous arguments and to those who say he raises some good points musn't have actually thought about it.

Or you haven't thought about it enough. I love my Wii, but it isn't perfect. Nintendo needs to cater to the 15-25 "hardcore" group, as it is gigantic. For instance, if Nintendo makes the most technically impressive console next generation, they could recruit many "hardcore" game developers to make games for their console. Nintendo could also make the casual games and core Nintendo franchises. This would allow Nintendo to dominate completely.



I'd love to see Malstrom respond to this. :awesome:

"The smug, passive-aggressive comments about the game industry"
And the constant abuse Nintendo gets is any better? Hah.

"For me, it demonstrated that Nintendo did not consider itself a part of the game industry."
Considering the game industry doesn't consider Nintendo a part of it...

That shows how much the hardcore doesn't merely had the Wii. They want it to go away. They can't even conced the good points anymore.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

WHat he's saying is that's all Nintendo has. They throw out the same stuff every year/couple years to make people happy. They don't go over peoples' expectations, they simply meet them.



I would say this is the best of his three company-bashing articles, because what he is saying has some sort of basis this time.
